"I thought that song could relate to a girl in high school, dealing with people coming down on her. 'Everything I'm not made me everything I am.' In my humble opinion, that's a prophetic statement. Gandhi would have said something like that."
First things, Kanye, I don't you think you understand what the word "prophetic" means. Here's how you might use that in a sentence: "That lady was oddly prophetic. She predicted Kanye would say something that makes absolutely no goddamn sense once every few days."

Also, most egregiously... Gandhi would have said something like that? Oh hell no, Kanye. He would not. Here's an actual quote from Gandhi: "I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent." That's what it sounds like to be profound, Kanye.
